In hindsight - I was thinking today that I wish I had just cut it off as well. :)

So Kevin, the hose would spin on the fitting? Next time you run into something like that--just get a razor blade--BE Careful-don't cut through your pants leg into your knee area! ( Eric )
and just slit the hose. |

I figured that my "local" Nautique dealer, which is about 60 miles from my home, would be a good place to start. :) I actually have not been down for a visit there in a long time. I should drop in and say, "Hi, I finally own a Nautique!"
Good to know that any PCM dealer should have what I need. Gives me some more local options. |

As part the on-going deconstruction of my 1993 Ski I needed to get the fuel tank out. I disconnected everything but struggled to disconnect the line that feeds the engine. It is located in the top of the tank in the middle. I could not get the hose off of the fitting, even though I could spin the hose. So I theorized that I could unscrew the fitting and disconnect it that way.
In a fit of adrenalin I sheered off that fitting. A small ball bearing fell out. Is this the anti-siphon valve? So, now what? Where can I get a replacement for the 90-degree angle fitting (with the other end of the part I sheered off in it) and the anti-siphon valve on the top of my tank? Sigh. Probably not the last thing I'll break trying to undo and reassemble everything. I'm sure going to know this boat like the back of my hand when it is all over. I did get the tank out and I'm siphoning the gas out 2 gallons at a time. It's a slow and boring process. |
